I was thinking less stat bonus but weapon or armor or skill bonus.

Based on the stat blocks in the sample characters, it looks like Humans get a +1 to all abilities and then an additional +2 to an ability of their choice. That seems pretty good to me.
I'm actually thinking that "+2" is just an additional +1 to the favored stat of their class (it appears all classes give a +1 to their "main") stat. So for the cleric 18 wisdom it was 15 from the array, +1 for general human bonus, +1 for class, +1 more for human class bonus.

Totally not sarcastic when saying it was a good idea, with like different weapon profs. or skills and stuff. Could even just call them like Hill people, or Desert people or islander. Don't have to talk about their looks. Keep it totally PC that way.

Its something Paizo toyed around with but didn't do anything with aside from description and a home land. They did a really good job at fleshing these people's cultures and stuff out. Now we just add some actual game mechanic stuff to add to the fluff, (I like fluff for the record) and you would have some cool human diversity. Then let the player add a +2 to ANY one stat they want.

Haven't the past few editions gotten at something like that with regional backgrounds? Like +some to a skill, or making something a class skill, or random other bonuses? Not as directly bundled into the race as subrace options are, but playing around in the same area.
Dwarves invented beer so they could toast to their axes. Dwarves invented axes to kill people and take their beer.

They certainly aren't given much from what I've seen. Not sure how I feel about it. In my experience people don't pick things to play based on anything but their idea of what they want to play, which is why humans have been the most popular race across all editions in my experience. However, I would like some unique elements as well, just to give em a little oompf.

At this point if you choose to be offended by anything I (or anyone else) say the problem is ENTIRELY your own.
WotC won't let us give them money because they won't produce a game we want to play.
